Plants need sunlight to carry out photosynthesis, a process where they convert light energy into chemical energy. Animals do not photosynthesize, so they do not require sunlight in the same way that plants do. Additionally, plants need carbon dioxide to produce sugars and oxygen as a byproduct of photosynthesis.
